Europe 2012 Reissue,
Deep, independent spiritual jazz from the early 70s that never quite got its due first time round. Long, searching grooves, sax and piano stretching out, rhythm section locked into that meditative pulse. It’s soulful without being soft and exploratory without drifting off. You can hear the DIY energy in it, proper players chasing something bigger than themselves. Heavy in the right way.
